Electricity price list
Query
A query lets your Applet retrieve extra data that isn't included in the trigger, so that your automation can include more complete or useful information.
Day-ahead prices represent the result of Nord Pool’s day-ahead implicit auction market.
Peak = 09:00 to 20:00
Off peak 1 = 01:00 to 08:00
Off peak 2 = 21:00 to 24:00
Average = arithmetic average
Vibrate on Xtactor
Action
An action is the task your Applet carries out after the trigger occurs. It defines what happens as the result of your automation and completes the workflow.
This action will vibrate a message on the Xtactor.
